Sunburn Factory
Early morning sunlight ready to take delight
There is no house in sight. Heat is ready to bite
This is heavy. Heavy and loud. Heavy and warm
Celestial body far away in the sky
Celestial body with all its rays of light
This is heavy. Heavy and loud. Heavy and warm
This is angry. It's not allowed. As a wasp swarm
Early morning sunlight's soon becoming a beaming sun
(chorus)
From the dawn to twilight
Sunburn factory, sound burst elegy
No more dusk nor sundown
Sunburn factory, sound burst elegy
High circulations at the speed of light
increase saturation of any sunlight,
Cause low frequency sound
They are coming down hitting the ground,
coming down at the speed of sound

Cervical Vertebrae Evolution
As each morning downtown streetcars. Music in ears, lost in my thoughts
I lift my head then begin to look around and I wonder where the fuck I am
Why everybody's looking down to their feet ? Why everybody is avoiding to greet ?
(chorus)
Cervical vertebrae evolution. Neck bones constriction
Next station, something's in my sight. I even may have an eye contact
It happened so fast i'm not sure anymore. Everybody's looking down and there's no more
one day I heard this story about an Irish mushroom poisoning humans,
taking control of their mind. It sounded like an old-fashioned story, you know
All I see now are robots mesmerizing humans through applications and phones

All You Need Now
In need of...
following codes, being approved by people, belonging to the majority
being told what to love, earning money, consuming to feel you're alive
having friends, having always something to say
Sorry I love to leave some blanks in my tales
In need of...
being told what to do, following the masses, being told what to love
being like anybody you like, following codes to fill a need of belonging
earning money to fill a need of consuming. You're not in need of needing everything
All you need now is me
In need of...
showing you're not following codes, showing you don't need people's approval
showing mainstream is only different when it suits you, showing you don't belong to my crew
having a goal in your life, showing all that you can buy, hiding you fear loneliness
hiding that you don't know anything, feeling reassured, showing you're a leader of that mass
being told what to do
In need of...
showing you don't follow what you've been told to do, showing you're different from your idol

Nightly Trance
She said : “good night, sleep tight” but...
I feel like my pupills are rolling inside their eye-balls
one eye tries to look inside myself then nibbles
The other one keeps focusing on the alarm clock light
And sometimes i have to tell myself to focus, to stop this flight
I have to tell myself to look outside me, I need relaxation
I have to look through the holes of my skull
with no trepanation, don't need trepanation
My mind talks and follows its flow
My body moves by itself and I only noticed later I was holding my foot with my hand
My mind talks and follows its flow
Feeling tired and completely outside reality I return to me and ask myself
where my mind has gone again, where it's gone again, I don't know, I don't fucking know
Nightly trance, daily tiredness
I dig a trench all through the night
Nightly Trance, if you wanna try I give you the shirt off my back
Asleep, can't sleep, awake, can't wake, can't wait for the day
I don't know if it's kind of like time-travelling
I don't know if it's an astral thin

Balance

Balance
Do you want to turn things up?
Do you wanna hear the little thing that nobody cares about?
I put my head down to my knees but you have to shake your heads now
I used to think too much. I used to think too fast. I used to want it now. Ready to sell my soul
I used to be in hurry and I must still be, till running after it : time or maybe death
(chorus)
Balance, balance
I had found my own one. The missing piece of my puzzle
The only one, no resemblance. Didn't know at first glance
At first sight I knew then with her I grew. Together we share the sweat, the tears then swear
My head down to my knees. I said “help me to get up again, please”
Hugging together we had the keys then we left into these pinetrees
You're my balance. She's my balance

Raging Inside
Deep inside me I know : physical condition's good
But inside my head I feel I'm struggling to survive
Is it inside my head ? Maybe it's just inside my head
Deep inside a dream I saw myself running
but inside another one I felt I was drowning
Maybe it's just inside my head. Maybe it's just inside his head
Maybe it was just a dream or maybe it was real
Is it inside my head ? Maybe it's just inside my head
Maybe it's just inside his head. Maybe this head isn't mine
(chorus)
I cannot hide. My vision is wide. At night comes high tide. I'm raging inside
No need to blame myself And no need to fill the blanks
Because once winter comes around I forget where I am
Maybe this dream wasn't even mine
Nightmare inside, what's going on in his mind ?

The Dreamcrusher
I come to you each night to watch you, I see you, deeply asleep. You're dreaming about money,
sex or cars. It seems useless but I need you dreamless. I can't help but watch behind my back
You're still into your crap that's why I am the dreamcrusher.
I don't give a shit about you but sometimes when I'm writing . I want to scream at you,
to shout at you, to make you cry, to wake you up. I am the dreamcrusher
You're part of this game, I wanna change the rules but i need you to push them cause you accept
voluntary servitude and that makes their game that's why I am the dreamcrusher
They are madmen leading the blind. You keep them in their idea of controlling people through
their laws, consumerism and medias. I am the dreamcrusher
Now stop dreaming. Alone I can change nothing

Your Turn Now
Everything crumbles into an eyesore. I don't look at my life anymore
I always think while looking forward. forward, forward, never backward
I hate all I see on the news. I hate all their points of view
I hate the message on your shirt. I want them all to be hurt
Who do think you are to talk to me without knowing my name ?
While you were provoking people around the only solution I have found
While you set yourself up as a rebel, the one who can help stood as the devil
Wearing their colours, singing their lyrics, you are only spreading their spirit
Stupid people told you to have a kid but there're already enough mouths to feed
(chorus)
Who do you think you are to talk to me without knowing my name ?
People are looking for songs that already express what they have in them
Music will never change opinions on anything, no it will never change
Nobody cares about them that's why, you know, we'll never be the same
I've fresh ideas and tortillas, with a knapsack full of speeches
No souse in my house down South. I'm serious and ready to grouse
I had fresh ideas and tortillas. Let's go back to the present now
Listen, I don't care if you don't follow. I've already told you all I know
Take my words, build your world, mine is done, I have fun
I don't care anymore about what I see. I just turn off the screen and feel free

Don’t Let Them Stack The Deck
Have you ever felt like you've been pulverised into ground meat by a brutal machine ?
Talking about things in an extreme way does not represent anything.
Real life is not extreme so I am not. I represent the boredom of life
In search of the untouched beauty of nature I left my demons overthere
But your vision of the world is filtered by the prism of your bulky references
Don't let them stack the deck
Do you strongly agree with me ? Don't you feel out of the masses ?
I don't expect you to change your way of life. Human nature is what it is
Control the time : forward, rewind. Critical Mind is not a crime
It's just a gift. Any ideas drift seems to be sniffed, seems to be crushed
You were walking blind alone on this road at the right place, at the right time
Education from the ones who care (about you) builds your out-of-the-box spirit
Religion you've never chosen has to be thrown away, it's implicit
To be smart is to hide that you're smart
For me it just didn't seem as appealing to get back in this arena
Make the most of what you have in you and comfort yourself as much as you can

Down The Stairs
Have you ever been walking down the stairs ?
Have you ever thought you can't make any repair ?
Have you ever been walking into this strange world ?
Have you ever wanted your face to be in this picture ?
one day you wonder how to get away with life
Down the stairs, in which direction to drive
It's real, no dream, take what you need but no more
Follow your stream, (live) like your own operator
You never came here before. Your world is behind the door
As any broken, lost or weirdo you don't belong here, no
(chorus)
Down the stairs : a world you don't care, a world that scares
Down the stairs survivors are rares, follow the only flare
You are now an outlaw. They will burn your own floor
Down the stairs you are now an outlaw
Follow your stream, they have burned your floor
And then you watch the world through your own eyes
Watch out, watch out, be ready to kill their spy
Down the stairs, play by your own rules
Reach happiness by your own tools
The broken and the lost, forgotten and weirdos
Down the stairs we are all outlaw
Avoid electro waves, don't be their techno slave

Pretentious & Insolent
Everything I do, I do it to reach the top
Everywhere I go, I go and you can't stop
Anybody around me, use for my goal
I'm not waiting for your feedback or for you to follow
(chorus)
Critics and people think I have no right even to try
But I'm very happy to claim things I didn't have the right to
Very happy to have tried being someone else
I turn “pretentious & insolent” into a compliment
Anything I can swap, any gap I can jump
I will cross the whole map to join this year's crop
I build my own pitfalls, create my own tumbles
I will leave when I'm bored and keep going toward

Dread

Dread
I woke just before dawn. Everyone else was asleep
I could barely stand, I saw it with perfect clarity
I was thirsty, scared, not sure if it was real
During that night my ideas were nasty
I felt a shadow in my bac,k, a lost soul which was black
It seems rock star fashion only fits rock stars
There can't be black souls Where there is blue sky
Hangovers pissed me off. I ran and I ran to get better
I preferred to clear my head, to run forward while i discovered...
I was seeking out glory and recognition
I sought those things to the exclusion of all else
I covered our objectives with my time
We got paid well then begun to buy a taste of their lives
(chorus)
This is a story I was telling myself about who I was
A collection of lies that would disappear in the first light
My madness has to stop, madness can go somewhere else
Admitting your weakness make you the strongest. Tenderness
I walked out the door and never went back
Come, let's go and see what happened to you

Room 42
I was still waiting for it. I was still working on it’. I wanted it intense.
Did it make any sense ? Why was it taking so long ?
Because I stumbled down the road like a drunk that didn't mean this way was totally sunk
one day I was partying with Liph Moansel When the world finally saw me
When the world finally looked at me I didn't expect it anymore
Then I understood
Room 42. Room For Two
Don't need anything else, a room for two is enough
I understood I've already had for a long time the most important fan ever around
Admiration of this one is enough. Any glory I was searching for can't count more
So now you can stop here. Everything has been done for her
Sincerity with which I shared my life allow me to truly look through her eyes

The Timemaster
one eye on the clock, just one turn to lock
the door of your day, the door to your way
Can't look over his shoulders. He runs, he's the oldest
Look at him covered in dust. He won't let you be the first
(chorus)
He's too fast for you. Too far from you
Like you've been carved out of plastic
He's the Timemaster
He doesn't wait for you, doesn't care for you
He doesn't look back. You can't steal his clock
No time to lose, no time to waste
No time for drugs, just time for sex
I have to hold on and save time because...
Don't tell me not to fly. Please let me earn my time
Look how hyperactive I am. You're the only reason why

A Ghost In The Machine
I am now at the end of a form of adolescence :
I want to stop scattering myself. I gave a lot.
I was thirsty to express myself. Perverse game with my private life
I don't try to make every song harder, meaner, tougher than the last one
It was more introspective.
Internal decay and collapse happened to be my motivation at that time
I do not know if many bands are evolving so radically
In general, when they find a formula, they cling to it
I'm always looking for new ways to experiment
There is no other way to avoid boredom
I'm not going to tailor my music
to what I think those people are going to like next
I don't think in terms of audience
I put some sort of sincerity onto a tougher musical edge
that normally wouldn't fit together
As a pawn on the eternal chessboard
never quite sure of its next destination
I blindly fulfill my walk-on role
Music plays a big part of the input to form your self opinion of who you are
I put a ghost in your machine
I enhanced what was a tired form
I attempted to marry you and me together
I put a ghost in your machine

No Last Resting Place
I used to think : I am 14 years old, there's no future here
I was starring at the stars, waiting for them to talk
I felt like I didn't belong anywhere
Reaching 33 years was my goal cause I wanted to beat Jesus Christ
I even beat him recently
Hey bro, don't feel old cause nothing has changed
There is no last resting place
Desperate people can be desperately upbeat and optimistic
Driven by a faith that tomorrow might not be like today
Sad songs always touch something deep inside us
To the depressed sad songs proffer a perpetual message of hope
Everything you hear is all here for you to help
There is worse pain in the world than yours
